This class is no longer available in the most recent version of the SDK.
A more recent version of this class is available. Check out the latest version.

Provides a builder which can construct a FacebookDialog instance suitable for presenting the native Share dialog. This builder will throw an exception if the Facebook application is not installed, so it should only be used if FacebookDialog.canPresentShareDialog(android.content.Context, com.facebook.widget.FacebookDialog.ShareDialogFeature...) indicates the capability is available.
